At any time, in any era, knowledge is always the most precious.
Whether it's a distant ancient era, or a city-state era in which the rudiments of civilization have emerged, or a classical feudal era, or a technological era in which iron and steel giant ships, airplanes and cars are running everywhere... Or a more advanced, more conjectured future science fiction era.
Knowledge is always the most precious thing.
From no one can easily get it, its appearance, from its birth to the moment when it is really endowed with meaning, is accompanied by civilization. Moreover, its existence and innovation promote the continuous progress of civilization. Therefore, it can enjoy such a special and lofty status, and be respected and worshipped by countless people!
In the ancient times, its role is more important, and it will never be easily leaked out.
The crucial production technology and all the knowledge accumulated by the ancestors recorded in the written language, whether it is the art of war, law, music or even all kinds of Arts Applied in the military field, are never easily disclosed. Want to learn these things, not only to pay a price, sometimes, but also to see a person's identity and status, doomed him to learn what, can't learn what.
And these, transferred to the magic there, the same is true, and even the conditions become even more harsh.
Because of the desire for magic, human beings are willing to follow the Forest Elves. The purpose is to learn how to master the mysterious power of magic or knowledge from the wizard!
However, in order to obtain the magic power, which we don't know, let alone understand at present, human beings are completely wishful thinking. No matter they work hard and are willing to stay with the wizard, don't they still want to get the knowledge and mystery of magic from the wizard?
And the Elven mages, from the beginning to the end, have never accepted the thoughts of these human servants. Moreover, as far as servants are concerned, all kinds of alchemy puppets created by them are more obedient and loyal than human beings. If they are asked to do anything, they will not hesitate to obey all the orders from their masters. And in the case of human beings, will human beings carry out all the orders from their masters without hesitation?
They are intelligent life, have feelings, have civilization existence, they have their own purpose existence. At least, before this goal is achieved, it is very difficult for human beings to have servants who are so loyal to their masters. Moreover, all the people who choose to follow the wizard can be said to be the most imaginative and independent special people in this era. Their hearts will not be subject to the strict hierarchy in this era. On the contrary, they also see themselves as servants of the wizard, and an opportunity to get rid of the harsh hierarchy in the human city-state.
At least, so far, none of the noble children would like to get rid of all the connections with the family, just to follow the wizard and learn the magic power called magic. Therefore, the human beings who follow the wizard are in the absolutely ruled class from birth to social status.
The only difference is that compared with the large number of people of the same class, they are very smart. And he has enough imagination, is full of curiosity to the outside world, and is not lack of enough decisiveness. Therefore, they resolutely seized the opportunity to completely separate themselves from the human world, willingly and shamelessly followed the Elf Mage to be a servant.
They are not so willing as to follow the wizard purposefully at the beginning.
Because they know very well that following the wizard can not only satisfy their curiosity about the outside world, but also take the opportunity to break away from the lowest social status. The important reason is that they are likely to learn the mysterious magic power in the process of following the wizard.
And this is their primary goal.
Although the Forest Elves have little contact with human beings, they do not have a deep understanding of human beings in the process of contact with human beings. However, the preliminary but simple observation has already given the elves a comprehensive understanding of the human race. Similarly, every mage who is proficient in magic is proficient in this way. They have already known for the first time what the ultimate goal of the human race is. This makes many mages extremely disdain and ridicule the arrogance and arrogance of human beings.
Although, in order to obtain more magic resources, more diversified magic resources, so as to artificially help human civilization, improve their productivity, smelting level and civilization level. But it doesn't mean that all kinds of knowledge born in elves, created and sublimated from within elves, will be open to human beings without reservation. Even in helping human beings to improve their own civilization, the knowledge taught by elves is only a very rare part.
However, for the primitive civilization in its embryonic stage, it is enough to help them enter a new world.
However, it is by no means easy to make civilization further. Moreover, Elves will not teach human beings all kinds of knowledge free of charge again. Their original intention of promoting human civilization is just to obtain more magic resources, that's all! If it were not for the precious magic resources, the elves would never have allowed the knowledge created by their own people to pass on to human beings.
Therefore, compared with the above vivid example, in the eyes of the wizard, it will appear how ridiculous and ignorant human behavior is now.
No matter what happens in the future, at least in the present, in the visible future, everything about magic is absolutely impossible to appear in the human world. The Elves will not allow such important knowledge to flow into human beings. Also will not help human beings, establish a magic civilization, do not want to cultivate a strong enemy for themselves.
The world's resources are limited, and the elves themselves are in short supply, even extremely scarce magic resources. How can we cultivate a human mage who also needs magic resources? If there is no accident, at least, the end should be like this. After all, for those human beings who reduced their status to servitude, the wizard did not restrict their personal freedom, nor did he force them to enslave them. They, with ulterior motives in their hearts, followed the wizard.
And the elf mages who knew and saw through all this just had a silent smile in their heart. Looking at the so-called human servants who are busy before and after with sarcasm and regard themselves as loyal servants.
However, in the eyes of the wizard who chose to follow, what he did was just a farce. Still in a very serious attitude and way, serve in the wizard side. And in the bottom of my heart, it has never dissipated. One day, they will be able to master the mysterious magic power like the elves.
And all these subtle psychological activities, and even the balderdash in sleep, let the wizard who knew all this, can't help but sketch a cold smile in the corner of his mouth.
"Go on, one day..."
Every wizard in the heart, so cruel and determined, issued the final judgment!
